I have a WRT54G router with v7.00.1 firmware (serial number starting
CDFE1...) and I would like to flash it with one of the Linux firmware
distros (for better QoS, user restriction management, etc) but I read
on the Tomato site (http://www.polarcloud.com/
tomatofaq#how_do_i_find_my_linksys_wrt54) that my router doesn't seem
to be supported and similar on the Bitsum (http://www.bitsum.com/
openwiking/owbase/ow.asp?WRT54G5%5FCFE) site.

My question is: Is there a relatively full featured Linux firmware
"upgrade" that will work on my model of WRT54G router? Any help or
suggestions would really be appreciated!

Cheers

Go look at http://www.dd-wrt.com I recently flashed my v5 WRT54G and the
ddwrt firmware offers an amazing array of new features including QoS which
you're seeking. Until I found this, I thought upgrading the firmware in my
v5 WRT54G router was not a possibility because it wasn't Linux based and
because of the limited RAM (8Meg) in the unit. I needed to use the router
as a wireless bridge and could not do so with the stock Linksys firmware.
After flashing the proper firmware (mirco generic ddwrt), it's working fine
as a wireless bridge connecting my DirecTV HR20 and XBox to my home network.
